Is there a Cliff Notes version of what's going on here?

Yeah and half the stuff is either way expensive or it has trash reveiws

I would believe most of it.

Here's a suggestion..... Continue to get money saved up and s l o w l y get the equipment purchased.

It's not a race and it's not emparitive to have a sw tank running tomorrow.

I’m not paying 50$ for a book that will take me 1 day to read

If anyone has a pdf for it can I read it? I would be wasting so much just for 1 book

You're right, the best place to start is get a great book or 2 on sw.
Google everything you have questions about, make a list of things you want or need.
Slowly get the equipment and tank and stuff together.

There's no reason to rush any of this.

But you'll throw away hundreds on dead livestock and then come back here to blame other members for your mistakes. You're just being a troll at this point.

I can’t find it free anywhere

I have a 20G long. The ATO costs more than the tank, sump, and stand combined.

Just sayin'.

Well now we see where the issue is! Knowledge is priceless, and in reality $50 for a physical copy of the most referenced book in the hobby is cheap.

If I spend 50$ on it I won’t be able to afford my tank

Then you dont need a tank.

A really good book is "Marine Biology, An Ecological Approach", by Nybakken and Bertness. $8 on Amazon.
